One Response to “Chronology of KopTalk's fortunes since this blog was launched”

Are you aware of his recent “server move” he implemented to koptalk.co.uk? Every user was blocked access to the site unless they emailed him and gave thier details. I presume this was to lock out inactive members, con people into paying again and basically more of his dodgy activities.
